We're far apart but our hearts are holding handsYes, it's hard to sit here by myself each night
Not knowing where you are or when I'll hold you tight
Yes I have temptations sometimes it's pretty rough
But temptation's never strong as our sweet love'Cause our hearts are holding hands across the miles
Even though we're lonely we can smile
'Cause I know you're my woman and I know you're my man
We're far apart but our hearts are holding hands
Today a stranger looked my way and flashed his gold
And said he'd buy me all the treasures I could hold
But I took out your last letter where you wrote you love me so
And there I found the strenght to tell him no
'Cause our hearts are holding hands across the miles
Even though we're lonely we can smile
'Cause I know you're my woman and I know you're my man
We're far apart but our hearts are holding handsAnd come what may our hearts are holding hands
